huawei_sa_api_request

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only mentions auth type but does not address potential destructive actions (POST/PUT/DELETE), rate limits, idempotency, or error states. The warning about Publish API not accepting service-account auth is useful but insufficient for a generic request tool.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single sentence that efficiently conveys the core action and a key exclusion. It is front-loaded with the main purpose and includes a parenthetical clarification. However, it could be slightly more detailed without becoming verbose.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the tool's complexity (4 parameters, nested objects, no output schema), the description lacks completeness. It does not explain the request body/data format, query parameters, expected response structure, or authentication setup. The absence of such details makes it insufficient for an agent to reliably invoke the tool without additional knowledge.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is only 25% (only 'url' has a description). The tool description adds no additional explanation for parameters like 'data', 'params', or 'method' beyond what the schema provides. Given the low coverage, the description should compensate but does not, leaving agents uncertain about how to structure the request body or query parameters.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose: making requests to Huawei/AGC service APIs using service-account Bearer token. It specifies the verb 'make a request' and resource 'Huawei/AGC service API', and distinguishes that the Publish API does not accept this auth, differentiating it from siblings like huawei_public_api_request.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description provides contextual guidance by noting it is for APIs that accept service-account auth and explicitly excluding the Publish API. While it doesn't name alternatives, the sibling tool names (e.g., huawei_public_api_request) imply the appropriate alternative for Publish API. This gives clear context for when to use this tool.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
